ALLAHABAD: How about
spending a holiday in the rustic
environment of Purvanchal (parts of
eastern Uttar Pradesh) village which
comes along with the icing of the bank
of mighty rivers of Ganga and Yamuna?
Well, this would become a virtual
reality in the coming days as the district
authorities are planning to develop a
mini Indian village and Shilp Haat at the
mela area of Arail, Naini.
Bamboo net ceilings, mud
plastered walls, ethnic paintings,
murals, beautifully carved furniture and
artifacts and much more is in the offing
for Allahabadis and foreign tourists,
being arranged by the tourism
department to showcase India in
microcosm.


TOURISM:-
Tourism is travel for
recreational or leisure purposes. The
World Tourism Organization defines
tourists as people who "travel to and
stay in places outside their usual
environment for not more than one
consecutive year for leisure, business
and other purposes not related to
the exercise of an activity
remunerated from within the place
visited". Tourism may thus be
defined in terms of its components,
namely the facilitations of travel of
tourists, the activities the undertake
at their destinations and the facilities
and services provided to cater for
their requirements.
INSPIRATION:-
The project has drawn its inspiration
from the famous Chokhi Dhani, an
ethnic village resort near Jaipur. It will
not only be offering a mini village,
depicting a typical village of eastern UP,
but this would come with the combo
pack of a shilp haat. The project is being
linked up with Kumbh Mela.
